Why Are Churches Blessing Same Sex Couples While Denying Same Sex Marriage?
There’s an alarming trend beginning to emerge in churches today across Christendom.

And how do we as evangelicals elevate doctrine to its proper position while still “loving the sinner and hating the sin”? We tackle this difficult topic in this round-table discussion.
